Hovie sets up this song, and it is not an easy song to sing, the verses require a lot of precision. As always the Statesmen do so without a beat.

Members incude: Doy Ott, Denver Crumpler, Jake Hess, Big Chief, and Hovie Lister.

  • does anyone know if big chief was married had a family etc??he was just the greatest.

  • Yes he was the greatest. He did have a family, if you look up the Statesmen quartet group on facebook, his daughter dianna posts there sometimes.

  • The high notes were sung by the incomparable, and outrageous Denver Crumpler. The greatest of all Statesmen.  That he often stayed in the background while he had the ability to vocally blow away anyone else in the quartet at any time is a testament to his teamwork and humility.

  • I love all those old groups, the Blackwoods, the Stamps, Weatherfords, Rebels, but on this kind of song there was no one like the Statesmen.

  • @VictorSlikk That pianist as you put it,is the great Hovie Lister.But in southern gospel he would be known as a piano player not a pianist.HA HA! We southerners have our own dialect.LOL!

  • @southerncrescent1401 He's the tall one in the back singing bass.

  • @chernowitz I've seen a few comments about "Big Chief". Which one is he?

  • @junior2404 As earlier mentioned, the Word of God tells us in 2Corinthians 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. And the reason Christ is returning is to rule for one thousand years in His kingdom here on earth. The blood washed saints will come with Him.

  • This song still thrills me to this day...one of my favorite Bible stories about how God delivers those who obey him...

  • Was this song on an album somewhere as well? I love it, and I can't figure out what Album it was on!

  • This lineup of the Statesmen is the one I remember attending concerts with my Dad as a child. so to me they ARE the Statesmen. The best southern gospel quartet ever!

  • im sorry, but the pianist was making laugh through the whole video LOLOL
